In winters because of coldness, I do not like to take out my gloves from hands to put my hands into the pockets and attend my cell phone call. The most irritating part is when it is a wrong number call. With Fossil FX6001 Bluetooth Watch, I found a solution to my problem. With this, I can see who is calling me on the screen of the analog.
It’s quite easy to use: press the bottom button to turn off features as well as pair the watch with the phone. The top button changes the display and/or confirms selections. It has a bright OLED screen where it draws the icons and displays the name of incoming callers. It also buzzes when you get an SMS. The watch does not have an audio feature, so all notifications are made through this discrete vibration. Vibration is fairly new in wrist mounted hardware, and it adds a certain amount of charm to an otherwise potentially distracting technology.
As a confirmed horological nut, I was fairly skeptical when I heard about the Fossil Bluetooth watch, the FX6001. This hefty beast is designed to work with Symbian Series 60 devices, mainly Sony Ericsson phones along with some Nokias. I tried it with a Nokia N91 with some degree of success.
*Sony Ericsson Bluetooth enabled mobile phones (K610, K610im, K618, K790, K800, W710, W850, Z610, Z710, P990, W950, and M600)
* Series 60 phones using Symbian OS version 7, 8, and 8.1 (coming soon)
The watch is like a heavy chunk of a metal, which is priced for $249.
